About My Clients

I strive to create a warm, collaborative space where clients feel safe being themselves. I work with children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families using a trauma-informed, attachment-focused approach. I specialize in trauma, anxiety, depression, self-injury, emotional dysregulation, avoidance, and relationship challenges.

My Background and Approach

My therapeutic approach is grounded in creating safety within the body, relationships, and self. I strive to foster a warm, collaborative space where clients feel safe to show up as their authentic selves. Working with children, adolescents, young adults, adults, couples, and families, I take a trauma-informed, attachment-focused approach to understanding the meaning behind emotions and behaviors, identifying authentic needs, and creating sustainable change. Through compassionate, client-centered care, I integrate DBT, EMDR, IFS, ARC, CBT, and Motivational Interviewing to support emotional regulation, trauma processing, communication, connection, and radical self-acceptance.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe healing begins with safety, belonging, and connection. Everyone deserves to feel seen, cared for, nourished, and safe to be their authentic selves. I believe everyone belongs, love is love, science is real, and compassion should never be conditional. I believe vulnerability takes courage, change is rarely linear, and small wins deserve to be celebrated. I believe our behaviors and emotional responses are often communicating something deeper, and that understanding them requires curiosity rather than judgment. I value slowing down, listening, and creating space to distinguish external expectations from our authentic needs, values, and identities. My work is grounded in the belief that meaningful change comes through self-awareness, connection, radical self-acceptance, and learning to feel safe within ourselves, our bodies, and our relationships. Above all, I believe every person deserves the opportunity to grow, heal, and live a life that feels
